What are the phones for 2013? Anything coming out to wait on? We are getting a choice of phones for work and since I have a iPhone 5 for my personal phone, I look at a Android. My boss picked up the S4 and is pretty cool. Just wondering what phones are comparable or if there was something coming out. People were saying the Nexus 4 is the most pure android phone but it seems like it may be a little dated by now.

Not expecting it to survive a nuke, just not be destroyed if it’s not surrounded by 1/4" of rubber in my pocket with my car key.
